Chapter 1707 Is It Him?
However, this short-lived joy was like a fleeting meteor in the night sky, dragging a faint light and disappearing in the solemn atmosphere in an instant.
The car fell into a brief silence again, everyone immersed in their own thoughts.
Everyone knew very well that the closer they got to City B, the greater the unknown danger would be, like a shadow lurking in the darkness. It was becoming thicker and more elusive as the distance got closer, as if an invisible giant hand was slowly strangling their throats.
But they looked at each other, and what they saw in each other's eyes was the firm determination to never retreat and to face death.
The fire burning in their eyes is enough to dispel the haze of doomsday. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, it cannot shake them in the slightest.
The city outside the car window was like a ghost town abandoned by the god of death, completely shrouded in a dead silence and weird atmosphere.
The streets were filled with a layer of faint mist, which was like a ghost's veil. It seemed soft and ethereal, but it faintly revealed an endless eerie chill.
The mist flows slowly in the breeze, as if countless wronged souls are crying softly, telling the story of the city's former prosperity and its current desolation.
Most of the buildings are in ruins, and the broken walls are dimly visible in the mist, like dormant prehistoric beasts, silently witnessing the coming of doomsday.
Every broken brick and stone, every twisted steel bar, seemed to be whispering about the suffering that this city had endured.
The mottled marks left on the wall are like scars carved by time, recording the past glory and the present decline.
The collapsed buildings, like the wreckage of giants, lie across the streets, adding a heavy sense of vicissitudes to the city.
As the armored vehicle slowly drove into the city, Li Luo's originally calm expression suddenly became solemn as if attacked by frost.
Her eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle, and her keen perception, like a radar, instantly captured a strange yet familiar energy fluctuation.
This fluctuation was like a flickering light in the darkness, appearing and disappearing in her perception, emitting a creepy aura that made her heart beat suddenly faster.
"This aura... could it be him?"
Li Luo's heart suddenly tightened, and a figure suddenly appeared in her mind like a ghost.
That was the mysterious man they encountered in City A, like an unforgettable nightmare.
She knew very well that this was no coincidence. This mysterious man must have been watching their every move in the dark like a ghost, waiting for the best moment to strike.
Li Luo did not hesitate at all and shouted loudly at the first moment:
"Everyone, be careful! There's danger! This aura is exactly the same as the mysterious man we met in City A!"
Her voice echoed in the carriage, as loud as a bell, carrying an unquestionable sense of urgency.
When Lu Jingcheng heard Li Luo's warning, his expression instantly became serious.
His originally resolute face was now even more tense, and his eyes revealed a determination.
He immediately picked up the intercom and spoke very quickly:
"Attention, vehicles behind us, there may be enemies. Everyone, be alert and prepare for battle!"
At the same time, he slammed his foot on the brakes and gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, his knuckles turning white from the force.
His eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, not missing any slight movement, like a cheetah ready to pounce, ready to deal with the impending danger at any time.
